“…Knowledge, emotional control, and awareness reflected through a positive attitude are needed to support safe family health management. Appropriate care and preventing contact other than with health workers can reduce the possibility of complications due to wrong health management in children (Bhalla et al, 2019). Knowledge is related to risk factors for disease in children; good knowledge has an impact on parents' awareness of the conditions experienced by children and they will tend to take preventive measures so that their children do not contract the disease and they are able to provide good treatment (Saputra et al, 2020).…”

Introduction: Poor air quality due to air pollution, unhealthy lifestyle, and easily transmittable viruses further increases the incidence of acute respiratory infections, especially in toddlers. This study aimed to determine the predictive factors, namely knowledge, attitude, and anxiety, of family health management in preventive and curative areas for caring toddlers with acute respiratory infections. Methods: This type of research is correlational predictive. The sample was mothers who have toddler with a history of ARI. A total of 392 mothers were involved and selected using purposive sampling. The instrument used was a questionnaire of knowledge, attitudes, anxiety, and family health management. Bivariate data analysis used the chi-square test and multivariate analysis used the logistic regression test. Results: Bivariate analysis showed that there was a relationship between knowledge, attitudes, and anxiety with family health management (p-value=0.000). Multivariate analysis showed that variables significantly related to family health management were knowledge (OR=19.791; 95% CI=10.349 to 37.847), attitude (OR=9.265; 95% CI = 3.969 to 21.628), and anxiety (OR=0.137; 95% CI = 0.066 to 0.285). Conclusions: Good knowledge and positive attitudes were related to effective family health management in the care of toddlers with acute respiratory infections. Furthermore, an increase in anxiety will reduce the effectiveness of family health management in the care of toddlers with ARI. Nurses need to optimize the role of the family through health education that focuses on increasing the mother's knowledge and attitudes in family health management, as well as managing anxiety in caring for children with ARI.

Part (2): Knowledge of rural mothers about respiratory tract infections (RTIs). Part (3): Assessment of compliance degree of rural mothers regarding preventive behaviors of respiratory tract infections (RTIs). Results: There was statistically significance positive correlation between total knowledge score, total compliance score of the studied rural mothers and family socio-economic status as (p=<0.001). Conclusion and recommendations: more than one-third of rural mothers had low level of knowledge, about onethird of them had moderate level of knowledge, and only one-quarter of them had high level of knowledge about RTIs. Furthermore, more than one-third of the studied rural mothers had moderate and higher compliance to preventive behaviors of RTIs while, only (17.3%) of them were having lower compliance with preventive behaviors of RTIs. So, we recommended continuous education and orientation programs for parents especially rural mothers of under-five children with RTIs to increase their knowledge and compliance with preventive behaviors regarding respiratory tract infections.
